Author Seeking Time with Vietnam Veterans

UPSTATE NEW YORK — Author/historian Robert Yott is in search of Vietnam veterans for his new project “Vietnam Veterans Share Project.” This project is meant to provide a forum for veterans of that war to talk about their experience during one of our country’s most turbulent times since the American Civil War. Yott has written extensively on the history and care of local war veterans. He would like to publish his findings in 2025, the 50th anniversary of the end of the Vietnam War. 

“The men and women who served in Southeast Asia were often unfairly identified as agents of a deeply flawed national policy. Many returned to a nation deeply divided by an unpopular war; there were no parades or fanfare. Their voices were often stifled by the hostile reception they received.  This project is intended to give a voice to those who served honorably but were rewarded with no honor,” he said. 

Yott has requested Vietnam Veterans contact him at vvs50th@yahoo.com to arrange a personal interview or request a questionnaire covering issues before, during and after the veteran’s in-country service. Or check out https://www.facebook.com/share/g/NusiRQQpm9bcHCYT/ for more details.
